Chicken Pot Pie Casserole is total comfort food!

Chicken pot pie is a meal that everybody loves. Both kids and adults enjoy it, and when everything is all wrapped up in a casserole, it’s even easier to make and serve! No need to worry about buying or making a homemade pie crust because this easy dinner recipe uses refrigerated crescent rolls as a crust.

This pot pie casserole is a filling and hearty meal. It’s very adaptable as you can alter the ingredients very easily, add in your other favorite things and omit anything that you can not eat.

This casserole uses pantry staple ingredients that you already have in your kitchen, no need to make an extra trip to the grocery store. That’s one of the best things about this recipe.

How to Make Chicken Pot Pie Casserole

• Cut 4 small lines in the dough with a knife. Brush the dough with milk, using just enough to cover it all.
• Bake uncovered for 20-30 minutes, or until the top crust also turns a beautiful golden brown and appears fully cooked. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Can You Add in Other Vegetables?

• Absolutely! Try adding in green beans and corn. If you use the frozen ones like the peas and carrots, make sure to thaw them first as well.
• You can also add in canned green beans and canned corn (drain these first) for more vegetables.

What to Serve with Chicken Pot Pie Casserole

Since this casserole is pretty hearty, I suggest making a salad or a light side dish to go with it. Some of my favorite salads to serve with pot pie casserole are:
Peach Salad with Bluerries and Feta
Broccoli and Grape Salad
Cucumber Tomato Feta Salad

Chicken Pot Pie Casserole Variations

• Instead of crescent rolls, you can use refrigerated biscuit dough for the top crust. You can also try using a pizza dough sheet or just a refrigerated dough sheet in a pinch.
• Feel free to swap out the water for chicken broth or chicken stock.
• For the potatoes, you can dice up your own potatoes, use Southern potatoes that are small, or use whatever frozen potatoes that you have on hand. Be sure to thaw them first.

How to Store Chicken Pot Pie Casserole

• Leftover Chicken Pot Pie Casserole can be stored in the baking dish that you made it in. Simply cover it tightly with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
• Alternatively, you can also store it in an airtight container in the fridge.
• You can even freeze any leftovers in a freezer safe container for up to 3 months. Don’t forget to let it cool all the way before putting it in the fridge or freezer.

How to Reheat

• To reheat your casserole, if you stored it in the original baking dish, simply reheat it in the oven at 350°F for 5-15 minutes or until it’s warmed thoroughly.
• If you stored it in a container, I recommend reheating it on a microwave safe plate until warmed.
• If you froze the leftovers, remove them from the freezer and let them thaw before reheating.
